Always Ready: MAG-11 Takes to the Sky
Four F/A-18C Hornets assigned to Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 323 fly in formation behind a KC-130J Super Hercules attached to Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron (VMGR) 352, Marine Aircraft Group (MAG) 11, during a readiness exercise called the ‘Elephant Walk’ above Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, Calif., Feb. 1. MAG-11 conducted this training to exercise its real-world capabilities. Exercises such as this provide realistic, relevant training necessary for 3rd MAW to “Fix, Fly, and Fight” as the Marine Corps’ largest aircraft wing and ensures the unit remains combat-ready, inter-operable, deployable on short notice, and lethal when called into action.
